Rainy Day at Home

I think I'll let the rain wash these carrots : )

This little verdin is usually hiding, but today he was out enjoying the rain.

She needs a pedicure!
I love working in the garden while it's raining.  Call me crazy, but it is so relaxing.  I really  needed to pull the rest of the carrots so I can put in my tomatoes. I planted a few seeds also - sunflowers, lime basil and asters.   I noticed in the cordia bush there were several birds - all in the same bush and getting along just fine. They were just happy for a little shelter from the rain.  Three different species - a verdin, a mockingbird and a white crowned sparrow sharing a space, peaceful and content.
